Some time ago n friend of mine inter-
csted in zoology received n day u box
from New Mexico without any mark upon
it az to what it contained. He instructed
his housekeeper to open it on finding it in
his hall and went up stairs. Presently he
was aroused by Il considerable cutlery,
and found hat the box contained Il Great
ure about n yard long, not unlike Il croco-
die. 1t was really II lizard, and my
friend Immediately packed it Off to the
Geological gardens, with n letter to the
curator, presenting 1t to the collection.
Next day, TO his establishment, he re
ccivcd n letter from the curator, saying:
pray, next time you send us an animal
for the collection warn US of its character,
for this lizard you sent us is n poisonous
one. Tho moment 1t was taken out of Its
box 1t bit q rabbit, and the animal almost
Immediately died. AS we took it out Of
the box without my hesitation this might
just as well have happened to the person
who unpacked the monster"
The existence Of this poisonous lizard
was unknown to the recipient, and was, /
believe, not known at the geological gar
dens My friend wrote out to his CORE
spondent in New Mexico, aud found that
he, too, was w of the poisonous
nature of the animal, and had only sent it
on account Of its rarity; but said the
New Mexican with charming frankness in
writing, NOW you mention it, l do re
member that one Of these lizards bit a
man, and certainly that man died. -

New Use for Delivery Stamps.

The heads Of the departments who have
to deal with Office seekers are considerably
annoyed Mt n new use which has been
made of the special delivery stamp. Per
sons in wanto of employment and failing
to get an audience, or who canno obtain
an answer TO their communications, now
make sure Of the delivery of their inquiries
or requests by investing ten cents in a
special delivery stamp. The letter so
marked goes direct to the secretary OF tc
whoever it is addressed, and if an answer
is not obtained there is II satisfaction in
knowing that the missive has reached its
intended destination, and that the official
memory has been logged and his promises
made during the winter recalled to him.
With the use of the special delivery
stamp there can be no claim ON the part
Of the official that he did not receive a let
ter and that it had been filed without his
knowledge in the regular order of bust

Physical and PsychicaI Activity.

Starting from the common observation
that when we do hard thinking we can
not at the same time use our muscles
cctivcly, DR.. j. Loob has attempted to es-
innate Q~uantitativcly the relation between
physical and psychical activity. His
method was to record his maximum grip
on u dynamometer; then after II short
rest, to begin some mental work; and,
while engaged in this, to record the maxi
mum grip once more, The result was
that the latter grip was decidedly less
powerful, and that the difference between
1t and the former grip was the greater
the moro difficult and absorbing the men
tai process. Fol Instance: in one case the
normal grip with the left hand depressed
the lever of the dynnmometer to n degs.,
while reading and understanding ii. C., he
could repeat the substance Of 1t in his own
words n scientific work only to II degs. (;
while simple reading it as SO many sounds,
67 dogs. Another gentleman professor
Zuntz) could normally depress the lever to
co dogs. but while reading n catalogue Of
names requiring little mental strain, to
% dogs.
DR.. Loeb's average maximum grip
when not occupied with mental work was
mean of both hands, n depression Of the
lever to So degs.; while multiplying one
number under ten by another such num-
her the depression was 81 degsi when the
two numbers were between ten and
twenty only 35 degs.; when between
twenty and thirty only IA degs. This
shows very clearly how the energy given
over TO the mental exertion is taken off
from the muscular effort. 1t must, Of
course, be understood that these results
nave only II general value. The method
presents many mechanical difficulties; the
question of attention is an important
factor; md DR.. Loeb simply offers these
results as n preliminary statement Of his
intention to work upon this problem

10 all old residents, the location
and history of the sold Corner" is
well known. For the information of
more recent corners, it may be said
that the place and building called
by that name is at the corner of
Nuuanu and Queen streets, on the
city front, near Brewers wharf, for
many years Honolulu's leading
coffee saloon under the management
of Mr.. III. j. Nolte. 1t is first
class business site, which, by reason
of its close proximity to the wharf,.
will always be valuable. This pro-
perty is now in the market at a
reasonable price. A lodging house,
on Alakea street, near the city
centre, doing a good and profitable
business, is also in the market.
These properties are in the hands
of Major Gulick, from whom full
particulars may be procured by
applying at his business agency,

for the purpose of recovering some

horse were found there, which Officer
Hopkins was requested to drive into
town, Mrs. Dodd returning alone in
another carriage. Whilst coming in
towards town, a wheel came off the
conveyance in which Hopkins sat,
and the horse started kicking, reach
ing Hopkins mouth and dislodging
several of his front teeth. His lower
lip was also badly damaged. DR..
Trousseau was telephoned for, and
ON his arrival, he sewed up the cash
in Hopkins face. He is now off

Los Angeles, March 15.-Dur ing
the past twenty-four hours there
has been one death from smallpox
"a child. There have been no new
cases in the same period. The
scare of last week, which drove
several hundred tourists from the
city to neighboring places, has en-
tirely disappeared and many are
now returning. Vaccination has
been very general and all cases not
removed to the hospital are isolated
and closely guarded by special
health police. Under this vigorous
system the disease is disappearing.
Health Officer Hogan reports at 2
o'clock to-day ten cases in the
Smallpox Hospital, all but two Of
which are convalescing, and thirteen
cases in the city outside hospital
twenty-three in oil. Quarantine
was raised from one house in the
city to-day.

sation he had with Emperor William
and Bismarck, he said he could
affirm there would be no war. The
Emperor told him Sunday that Ger
many would never attack France.
